Fucking depressing

I honestly think this book has brought me out of my depression. It’s hard to explain - one just has to read it to understand, but the profound emptiness in one’s soul is mirrored in the main character. This creates such a thought provoking, emotive piece which forces the reader to consider the value they place on their life
